Germany must import this year no less than 3,500,000 tons of grain and another 500,000 tons of high protein feeds, according to a survey in the Koelnische Zeitung quoted in a Berlin dispatch by Otto D. Tolischus to the New York Times.
The actual demand is 3,750,000 tons of grain and fodder and between 500,000 and 750,000 tons of protein foods, according to the survey. There are charges that various Nazi projects are turning Germany gradually into a steppe, the dispatch says.
